Hey there Jon, the pic’s are outstanding, the slide show FANTASTIC!!!…and a Book, definitely, a Book should come from all of this…something for others who make the same “trek” and those of us who like to read about it and see all the fantastic pic’s of such diverse places…

Don’t know how you can even think about Alaska to Patagonia right now…but hey, we think that’s fantastic too if you should decide to do it!!!

PS: Curious to the total amount contributed for the “Yoder’s” foundation!!!

Do you have the route map reversed from Mexico to Canada? I would like to go from Mexico through Colorado and would really like to have a copy of the route sheets if you have reversed them from the book , Cycling the Great Divide, McCoy.

Great Goin’ Jon! It’s a real crack at the bat and I know what you mean ’bout directly wanting to plan the next tour. We’ve biked this year from Germany to Israel … I can only truly recommend Turkey … far out. I have a few questions about the great divide b/c we’re probably going to be doing part of it next year in summer and it’d be really cool of you to send me an email. Thnx.

LONGEST OFF-PAVEMENT BIKE ROUTE IN THE WORLD

The Great Divide Mountain Bike Route is the world's premier off-pavement route, crisscrossing the Continental Divide. This route is defined by the word "remote." Its remoteness equates with spectacular terrain and scenery. The entire route is basically dirt-road and mountain-pass riding every day. In total, it is 2700 miles long and has over 200,000 feet of elevation gain. All of this climbing gets the rider into visually spectacular places and incredibly fit shape. The route was designed by Adventure Cycling and sees fewer than 30 "through-bikers" each year.
